G ENERAL I NFORMATION Biomin Molybdenum is an amino acid chelated mineral. The chelating agent is mainly glycine, the smallest amino acid commonly used by and found in plants. The unique formulation of Biomin Molybdenum classifies it at the top of the range of all chelated minerals. Biomin Molybdenum is a readily bio-available plant single mineral product. The highlights of such a product include almost total absorption within a few hours after application. The chelating agent Glycine prevents the precipitation of the product and enables all the minerals to move freely inside the plant making the product highly systemic. Biomin Molybdenum is ideal for all crops, especially cucurbits and brassicas. All crops require Molybdenum, even in trace amounts.
A DVANTAGES & B ENEFITS Biomin Molybdenum is a bio-available organic plant nutrient that is systemic, readily available and nonphytotoxic. Biomin Molybdenum is very stable in formulation Biomin Molybdenum:Molybdenum 1) Is a highly systemic form of Molybdenum that can be used when severe Molybdenum deficiencies exist.
2) 3)
Promptly rectifies Molybdenum deficiencies. Has shown phenomenal results on crops such as cucurbits, brassicas and vines which respond significantly to Molybdenum applications.
Biomin Molybdenum is used for the conversion of nitrates of ammonium. Molybdenum aids the plant to better utilise Nitrogen applications. Biomin Molybdenum is wax soluble, therefore is extremely available to the plant and only small amounts of this element are required to achieve desired results.
C OMPATIBILITY Always run a compatibility test before spraying Biomin Molybdenum with other chemicals. Biomin Molybdenum is compatible with many fungicides and insecticides. Biomin Molybdenum is INCOMPATIBLE with Phosphorous, Calcium and Potassium foliar nutrients.
P LANT and E NVIRONMENTAL S AFETY Biomin Molybdenum is totally harmless to plants. Exceeding recommended rates is not recommended and unnecessary. Biomin Molybdenum is totally harmless to both humans and wildlife and is environmentally friendly.

For information on application rates and timing for crops not listed on this brochure, please contact your local distributor or visit the Zadco website at www.zadco.com.au It is always advisable that a leaf sample be taken before applying fertilisers to best ascertain the levels of elements and the nutrient requirements of the crop.
F unctions of Molybdenum in P lant N utrition Molybdenum is a co-factor in enzyme nitrate-reductose. It aids in the conversion of nitrates of ammonium and is also essential for Rhizobia to enable legume crops to fix aerobic (atmospheric) nitrogen. Molybdenum also helps plants to utilise nitrate nitrogen and is involved in phosphate and iron metabolism. All of these factors make Molybdenum a critical element to apply to almost all crops. In the absence of this element, plant growth and productivity is adversely affected. The conditions that reduce the availability of Molybdenum are:- 1) low soil pH, especially if the soil contains aluminium or iron oxides, 2) soils with high copper, 3) soils with low phosphate, and 4) soils derived from parent materials low in molybdenum.
